Hi! Welcome to the Complete Interpreter podcast by the Interpreting Coach.

Why 'Complete Interpreter'? Because you're not just a translation machine, you're also a person and a business owner, and I hope to help you take a 360 view of yourself and share some great tried-and-tested strategies to improve your interpreting skills, mindset, use of target language, and marketing.

This episode is for interpreter trainers.

I've tried to think about which approaches I think are successful in the classroom, and which are likely to yield less good results:

- telling rather than showing

- never moving on from the 'what' to the 'why' and 'how' when giving feedback

- taking too long over feedback

- making each class a test


Let me know what you'd like me to talk about next!
